Multi Purpose Contacts, commonly known as MPCs, are robust connections found between a range of electrically operated items. They are mostly used in industrial and manufacturing applications where noise and vibration can cause disruptions in existing mechanical connections. MPCs are available in various sizes and styles, with most connections comparable to traditional machined and threaded metal connections. The most common MPC is the 38941-16, which combines four contact pieces in an inline series, making it ideal for industrial and power winding applications.

38941-16 Application Fields and Working Principle

The 38941-16 MPC is idea for installations such as transmissions, transformers, and generators where noise and vibration are constant issues. It works because it creates a secure connection that will resist forces from shock and vibration while providing reliable performance and a long-term service life. The working principle of an MPC is simple. When a force is applied to the contact pin, four same-sized pins slide relative to each other and "just-fit\'\' into the contact groove. This ensures that the contact securely grasps the contact groove, forming a reliable electrical connection.

To increase the longevity of the connection, a bore is incorporated into the four-pin design of the MPC. This bore acts as a "lock,\'\' providing additional protection against vibration-induced contact loss. The locked design also ensures reliable electrical contact, even if lifted from the connection by movement or force. This is especially important for electrical circuits where an unexpected loss of contact could cause critical errors or equipment malfunctioning.

The 38941-16 MPC also offers robust design features that offer a degree of reliability and flexibility that is not available in many other types of electrical contacts. It features independent electrical contact pieces that allow for easy installation and maximized performance, while its special gasket seal system prevents dust, moisture, and dirt from entering the electrical circuit. This helps protect delicate or sensitive electrical applications and keep operations running smoothly.

Overall, the 38941-16 Multi Purpose Contact provides an effective, reliable, and convenient solution for applications where noise and vibration are common. Its easy installation and flexible design make it a popular choice among those in the electrical and industrial industries. The investment in an MPC may be a considerable burden at first, but its long-term performance and reliability make it worth the price.
